I have tried a few street teams. Two that no one wanted to take the lead, so no one knew what role to play. Another that someone started and wanted the benefits, but didn't want to follow their own rules. And, now I'm a member of one, but it has to do with promoting blogs. This one has a lot of members and a lot of rules that are very confusing. <BR/><BR/>So I don't know the answer either. Co-op advertising can work, but I agree there has to be a genre that the group fits in, rathe than everyone doing the same thing and competing.Waterrosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07422788758188500128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6751285215938850138.post-79752185782532557792008-04-10T10:23:00.000-07:002008-04-10T10:23:00.000-07:00I just tried to leave this comment and something w...I just tried to leave this comment and something went wrong, so hopefully I'm not repeating myself:) I wanted to say that I think I've been lucky with the team that I am a member of. It is a very diverse group, so I don't really feel a sense of competition. Also, expectations about participation and financial contribution are quite low. It's more of a community that promotes, rather than a heavily promotion-driven group.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6751285215938850138.post-80190705992826925192008-04-10T07:36:00.000-07:002008-04-10T07:36:00.000-07:00You know, I just left a street team for this very ...You know, I just left a street team for this very reason. There was so much expectation of participation but no one could really nail down for me what I was expected to do. <BR/><BR/>I'm contemplating starting a street team for the Upstate New York Area .. Capital Region, ya know.. but I probably should get my store up and running first.SewCrazyDogLadyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13156405199871308250noreply@blogger.com
